General Notes: Husband - Henry Bloom

---

While living on the home farm he attended the nearby public school, the combination of home duties and school studies making his youthful days busy and well-occupied. After leaving the home farm he learned steel heating processes in the plant of the Cambria Steel Company, at Johnstown, Pennsylvania, in 1884, coming to Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, and entering the employ of the Hartman Steel Company, remaining in that service for five and a half years, at the expiration of that time giving his final farewell to the steel manufacturing industry. He immediately began work at the carpenter's trade, and later entered the contracting field. His business was general in character, the field of his operations extending from Pittsburgh to New Castle. One of his contracts was for the building of the Pittsburgh plant of the Edwin Bell Company, barrel and keg manufacturers, the home of the industry covering two acres, and for four and a half years after the completion of his work he was employed by this firm in the capacity of outside superintendent, his territory extending from South Sharon to Monessen. Following this he confined his business interests entirely to contracting with pleasing financial results.
Mr. Bloom and his wife were members of the Lutheran Church, serving as trustee for twenty years. His political views dictated allegiance to the Republican party. For seven years he was a member of the Beaver Falls council.
